New Police HQ?

The possible new Green River police department sits as a skeleton at the corner of Flaming Gorge Way and North Fourth West. The city agreed to purchase the land for $250,000 at Tuesday evening’s Council meeting but there are some detractors to the idea. Councilman Jim Boan was the sole opposing vote, claiming the sale price was too expensive for the property and said the council members didn’t receive notice of the sale until that evening. The city reportedly inspected the property and gave the OK. Jeff Neiters, finance director for the city, said the city would purchase the building and lot through reserve funds. He added the cost of maintenance and other upkeep costs would be paid through the city’s operations budget.
